🧜‍♂️ Course Overview

The PADI Open Water Diver Course is the world’s most popular scuba certification program, and for good reason. It combines theory, confined-water training, and open-water dives in a structured yet enjoyable way. Over three days, you will progress from beginner to certified diver, learning step by step under the guidance of experienced PADI professionals.

Your diving journey begins in the calm, shallow waters of Makadi Bay, a location chosen for its safety and ideal conditions for beginners. Here, you’ll practice basic skills such as mask clearing, buoyancy control, and regulator recovery. These exercises are designed to build your confidence and ensure you feel comfortable underwater.

Each day, you’ll also head out by boat to dive in open waters. These dives are where the magic truly happens — you’ll apply your new skills while exploring vibrant coral reefs, schools of tropical fish, and the crystal-clear environment of the Red Sea. Between dives, you’ll enjoy a buffet lunch and refreshing soft drinks on board, making the experience both educational and relaxing.

📚 Theory Sessions

The course includes short theory lessons that cover essential topics such as:

• How pressure affects your body underwater
• The importance of equalizing your ears and mask
• Safe ascent and descent techniques
• Planning dives and understanding dive tables or computers
• Environmental awareness and protecting marine ecosystems

These sessions are interactive and engaging, often supported by videos, discussions, and quizzes. They ensure you understand the principles of diving and can make informed decisions underwater.

🏊 Confined-Water Training

Before heading into deeper waters, you’ll practice in confined conditions — usually shallow areas of Makadi Bay or a swimming pool. Here, you’ll learn and rehearse the fundamental skills that every diver must master:

• Clearing water from your mask and regulator
• Achieving neutral buoyancy using your buoyancy control device (BCD)
• Sharing air with a buddy in case of emergency
• Removing and replacing equipment underwater
• Practicing controlled ascents and descents

This stage is crucial because it builds the foundation for safe diving. By the time you move to open-water dives, you’ll feel confident and prepared.

🌊 Open-Water Dives

The highlight of the course is the series of open-water dives in the Red Sea. Over the three days, you’ll complete four dives, gradually increasing your depth and independence.

• Dive 1 & 2: Shallow dives focusing on practicing basic skills in real conditions. You’ll explore coral gardens and encounter colorful reef fish while rehearsing safety techniques.
• Dive 3 & 4: Deeper dives (up to 18 meters) where you’ll demonstrate mastery of your skills and enjoy the full thrill of underwater exploration. Expect to see parrotfish, butterflyfish, angelfish, and perhaps even rays or turtles.

These dives are not only about training — they are genuine adventures that showcase the incredible biodiversity of the Red Sea.
